My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2457

If Lawrence simply did not want her to be with Jared, that would not make sense because she and

Jared were already a couple.

"There must be something that happened over the past five years that he's trying to keep from you."

Jared's voice was tinged with an icy edge. He thought, 'This seems to be the only reasonable

explanation, but what could Lawrence possibly fear Nicole finding out?'

Locking eyes with Jared, Nicole shook her head. A look of confusion crossed her face. "I haven't found

anything unusual."

Actually, as far as she could recall, Lawrence had always been caring toward her and the children, and

had been a great support during her toughest times. She felt a sense of gratitude toward him. So she

found it hard to believe he could be hiding anything from her.

As if he could read Nicole's mind, Jared said solemnly," Something must've happened from the time

you first disappeared until you truly accepted him."

Nicole's face tensed a little. 'A lot happened during that time, but I don't think any of it was related to

Lawrence.' Out loud, she said, "But I remember everything from that time." Again, in her mind, she

wondered, 'What could Lawrence be hiding from me?'

"There has to be a link. Something from that time must be related to a memory of yours." Jared's eyes

flashed coldly as he thought, 'Lawrence really can't be trusted.'

"I've spent the whole afternoon searching for information, but sadly, there's hardly anything about

Lawrence, and even less that's helpful."

"If he could perfectly fabricate your information, he can certainly hide his own. Keep searching, you'll

find something eventually." Jared gently held Nicole's hand and comforted her.

"Right, I'm already working on it." Nicole nodded, knowing she could not rush this matter.

"Max, have someone search for all the information Lawrence has kept private." Jared commanded, his

gaze slightly cold.

"Yes," Max affirmed respectfully, his eyes showing determination.

Nicole lightly bit her lip, hesitated briefly, then told Max, "His main area of control is all in Mecrounia.

There are also

some old subordinates whom I haven't met and with whom he has lost contact."

She had only overheard Lawrence and Ian mentioning them once, but it was not related to her, so she

did not ask more. As for the rest, she believed Jared knew more than she did.

"He actually contacted those old subordinates. The last time he said he was going to Crescent Island,

he actually

went to contact them," Max whispered.

Nicole's eyes widened. Then she laughed at herself, realizing she really did not understand Lawrence

at all.

"Leave it to Max. He'll figure it out." Jared gently held Nicole's hand and comforted her.

"Okay." Nicole nodded, deciding to decode the crest that Lawrence gave her as a way to thank him for

saving her life. Once she did that, she felt like she would not owe him anything anymore.

'I used to think we could always be friends, but now it looks like Lawrence might've never thought of me

as a friend.' She bit her lip, sighed softly, and rested her head on Jared's shoulder for support. That

made her feel a little better.

After a bit, they got to the kids' school. Nolan and Lana, super happy that their parents were coming to Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

get them, ran over as soon as they saw Jared's car. When the car door opened, they hopped in.

"Mommy!"

"Daddy!"

Nolan and Lana squeezed between Nicole and Jared, their eyes wide with curiosity. "Where are we

going?"

"To Great grandpa's house," Jared said, giving Lana's little nose a playful tweak.
